Internship Application
for College Students & Recent Graduates

Our paid internships are for current undergraduate and graduate students and those who have already earned a degree who are passionate about marine science and the ocean and want to share their passion with others. Interns receive hands-on experience in youth STEM education, educator professional development, citizen science, community outreach, research vessel operations, digital media & marketing, science communications, photography, filmmaking and/or nonprofit and business administration. ANGARI interns work closely with our employees to gain hands-on experience and become an integral part of the ANGARI team during their internships.

Our interns are expected to commit to a 3- or 4-month internship depending on time of year and work on site ~20 hours per week, plus occasional evenings or weekends. Interns receive a monthly stipend of $1,000. Accommodations are not provided except for when traveling aboard our research vessel. We are interested in all qualified candidates but can only consider those candidates who have valid authorization to work in the United States.

All applicants should be:

• enthusiastic about the ocean, science research and STEM education
• hard working with a positive, can-do attitude
• organized, detail-oriented and able to multitask
